Chapter 17 Chapter 17
"Family members, check the IP, does anyone know what happened at Green Shade Park last night?"
Early morning, workday.
As soon as the sun appeared above the horizon, the young office workers in this city boarded the subway to the company.
Having to commute early in the morning, and having slept well last night, but being woken up by a loud noise coming from the north of the city, everyone was in a bad mood.
Therefore, when seeing the discussion about this matter online, many people couldn't help but click on the post to complain.
"It's the middle of the night, I don't know what you're doing."
"Geological mining? It also requires time."
"Are you going to let people live?"
Fortunately, the relevant departments came out to explain in time, acknowledged the relevant actions, apologized to the public, and promised that there would not be a next time. Only then did the matter come to an end.
This set of post-processing operations was done so smoothly that not only Mi Gao but even Ning Su was stunned.
My goodness, this monster is so skilled.
After watching some public opinion handling, Ning Su, who was at the scene of the crime, also learned some of the events from Mi Gao's mouth:
"What? I was the one who struck the lightning? And it also struck another demon?"
Beishan Temple is not far from the dense forest. When the staff of the Monster Bureau arrived, the barrier was broken and the big monster and Ning Su were exhausted.
As a law enforcement agency, the Monster Bureau quickly demonstrated its professionalism: they rescued Zhou Jingyi who was knocked unconscious, arranged for staff to send him to the hospital, and also notified the other party's studio.
In addition, although the fox demon did not actively hurt anyone, it was still considered to be provoking trouble and disturbing social order, so it was detained according to law.
After handling a case, how to deal with the demon that was struck unconscious became a new difficulty.
Director Tan’s team was obviously not very experienced, so he finally resorted to the same old trick and handed it over to Ginseng Spirit’s team.
As a good friend of the ginseng spirit, Mi Gao also took the opportunity to find out the whole story, and Ning Su also knew what had happened behind the scenes.
“Is it so complicated?”
Ning Su never thought that what was originally just an ordinary case of missing celebrity would have so many twists and turns.
Who would have thought that while dealing with Zhou Jingyi's case, the Demon Bureau was also carrying out another major operation.
"No wonder the people sent by the Monster Bureau didn't seem very capable of fighting."
After understanding this, Ning Su was completely relieved and put aside all his complaints about the relevant departments being unreliable.
In addition to Zhou Jingyi's case, Ning Su also heard a more detailed version of another case.
It turned out that the demon that caused the accident was a weasel. It had been in human society for a few years and had a lot of crooked ideas.
After the other party mistakenly entered a pyramid scheme organization, instead of being brainwashed, his potential was stimulated and he started doing bad things.
At first, the other party only dared to do small things, but after cheating some money, his courage gradually escalated and finally developed to the point of harming people.
The other party used all kinds of sorcery to defraud millions of dollars from elderly people like Grandma Haohao, and the social impact caused was also very bad.
Being caught by the demon bureau this time, it is obvious that the ending will not be good.
"Humans have their own laws, and demons have their own rules."
Although he has only stepped half a foot into the world of monsters, Ning Su himself also agrees with the approach of the Monster Bureau.
With modern technology, the methods of some little demons have been gradually replaced. However, compared with ordinary people, if these little demons deliberately endanger social order, the harm caused is greater.
“Well done.”
As an eyewitness to the case, Ning Su would never make excuses for a little demon like the weasel.
The weasel had committed many evil deeds, and the demon bureau was indeed not polite to it. After the weasel was awakened, it was quickly transported to the city.
"The details will be further interrogated."
After all, the weasel's crimes are secretive, and there may be more cases like the one involving Haohao's grandmother - finding out about them in advance is also for the purpose of prevention and follow-up.
After dealing with the weasel, the previous case was officially closed.
Then, the Demon Bureau's attention was shifted to the fox demon.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Thanks to Officer Ning's explanation, others had some rough guesses about the fox demon's motives. However, after figuring out why the fox demon wanted revenge on Zhou Jingyi, it was still difficult for others to make a judgment on the case.
Although it was the fox demon who made a fuss out of nothing, Zhou Jingyi was indeed wrong.
But if you say that what the fox demon did was okay, it was indeed a bit too much to capture a person, hang him up, and almost chop him into charcoal.
"Can't you use a more tactful approach?" The ginseng spirit complained in a low voice, relying on his age.
The fox demon sneered and blew on her nails: "This is already the most tactful way, do you want to try another method?"
In the history of their fox demons, the predecessors would kill people at any time, and it was not uncommon to have their intestines and lungs ripped out after being deceived. He was already gentle enough.
The ginseng spirit wanted to say something, but when he saw the threatening look in the fox demon's eyes, he slowly closed his mouth.
It is better for it to say less in front of a big monster.
After figuring out the cause and effect, the case of the fox demon has entered its final stage.
Zhou Jingyi received treatment, but he was not seriously injured, which reduced the difficulty of handling him.
Finally, according to the regulations of the Demon Bureau, the fox demon needs to compensate Zhou Jingyi for his medical expenses and also needs to apologize.
"I dare to apologize, but does he dare to listen?"
The fox demon sneered, and the other staff members of the demon bureau felt their scalps tingling - see! This is the difficulty of dealing with big demons.
You can't beat him, so you have to coax him.
Fortunately, the situation of the fox demon is quite special. Although it is a big demon, its identity is still a guardian deity and it has another person responsible.
After contacting the human tycoon, Xiao Du nervously opened the video on his mobile phone and placed it in front of the fox demon.
"Erbao——"
Hearing this long cry, the fox demon's usually confident expression changed slightly.
Ning Su was curious and took a glance from a distance, and found that the person speaking on the video screen was not the legendary middle-aged rich man.
But it was a silver-haired old lady.
"That seems to be Mr. Tang's mother." Someone speculated.
In front of the screen, the old lady was smiling and talking slowly to the fox demon. However, the words she said were somewhat unexpected.
"Dabao said you're not at home every day, what are you doing?"
"Don't you want to see me and are avoiding me on purpose?"
"You are so old, kid, and you still don't understand."
In front of such a silver-haired old lady, the fox demon who was extremely arrogant before seemed to be sealed, looking around with wandering eyes.
"I don't understand what you are saying."
The old lady didn't bother with the fox demon and said gently, "While I'm still conscious, come to the hospital to see me."
The fox demon didn't say anything, and the phone was quickly taken away by another person. This time, the person who answered the phone became the person who was actually responsible for the fox demon.
He walked out the door and changed his position.
As a wealthy man, Tang Songzhi looked quite gentle. He apologized to everyone first, and then explained the specific situation.
It turns out that although this fox demon named Tang Erbao is the guardian deity of the Tang family, he was raised as a son since childhood.
"My mother came into contact with it when she went to work in the countryside in her early years."
This is also a rather old-fashioned story. Back then, the old lady responded to the call of the country and was assigned to work in the frontier.
At that time, living conditions in the border areas were poor and medical care was even worse. As a medical student at the time, the old lady began to go to the countryside to work as a barefoot doctor regardless of rain or shine.
When I went to a certain family to deliver a baby, I found that the family looked suspicious. Although they seemed to be anxious about the mother's health, they seemed to be hiding some secret.
The old lady was also a smart and courageous person when she was young. She pretended not to notice anything and only talked to the family about midwifery. After gaining the other party's trust, she got the family's secret out of her.
Due to the chaotic customs in the countryside, most of the knowledge is based on stories and legends. Because the mother in the family suffered from major and minor illnesses during pregnancy, the family wanted to find a way to cure her.
After being advised by someone, they went to the black market and spent a large sum of money to buy a fox, intending to kill the fox and make soup.
After the old lady heard this, her expression changed immediately.
Putting aside the question of whether pregnant women can eat fox meat, the fox itself is also a living being, so why commit this sin of killing?
At that time, the old lady was still young and went to the countryside alone. She made a few suggestions tactfully, but when she found no one was listening, she shut up.
But she was not a person without plans. Seeing that the mother of the woman in labor was kind-hearted, she finally found an ally after much persuasion.
Relying on the mother's concern for her daughter, she first delivered the baby successfully, and then spent a large sum of money to buy the fox.
After she bought the fox, she understood why the country people wanted to kill it - the fox had snow-white fur, looked very small, and had wet eyes when it looked at people.
It doesn't look like a ferocious beast at all.
The old lady was also a person who valued appearances. After rescuing the fox, she secretly took it to her own residence and raised it for a while before releasing it.
Later, the old lady got married, had children, and was transferred back to the capital.
Somehow this fox followed him and lived in his house. When the babies were born, the family simply raised the two cubs together.
One is called Dabao and the other is called Erbao.
This name came from this time.
After hearing this story, everyone was stunned. In their opinion, the big demons were sometimes the embodiment of unreasonableness because of their great abilities and bad personalities.
But who would have known that such an annoying monster could also restrain its ferocity and integrate into the human family.
"Some time ago, my mother was in poor health, and Erbao caused a lot of trouble and brought trouble to everyone."
From Tang Songzhi, Ning Su heard another version of the "financial sponsor" - because the old lady was ill, the fox demon found many secret methods in the tribe, hoping to prolong her life.
But now is the Dharma Ending Age, and there is not much left of the fox demon clan’s heritage, so how can there be any way to prolong people’s lives?
All the fox demon did was just to make trouble.
Since the magic was ineffective, the only option was to turn to modern technology. The fox demon invited some young scholars in the name of Tang Songzhi.
It was also because of these scholars who were frightened by the fox demon that Tang Songzhi gained a bad reputation.
Now, the fox demon has turned his attention to the holographic online game——
This is his latest idea. He wants to preserve the old lady's consciousness in the form of data.
"Erbao."
Through the video, Tang Songzhi looked at the fox demon, who looked like a teenager for years, and couldn't help but sigh: "Stop making trouble, come back."
"Talk to mom more."
Hearing this, Ning Su turned his head.
He was shocked to find that the eyes of this previously arrogant fox demon were red because of the simplest words.
